The most prestigious tournament series in the world has announced the schedule for the 2010 World Series of Poker. The 41st annual World Series of Poker in Las Vegas is set to run from May 27-July 17, 2010. It is the only tournament series that awards the coveted gold bracelet signifying the best poker champions in the world. The series attracts players from all over the world. In 2008 it was named the 7th most admired sports brands in North America.

This year there have been a few changes to the tournament set up, and all changes appear to be positive ones. In the past, players have had to endure long hours which can be taxing on anyone’s play. This year tournaments that start at 12 noon are expected to play a maximum of10-one hour levels, and 5 p.m. starts will play a maximum of 8 one-hour levels. This will give players the opportunity to get adequate sleep for the next day’s start. Tournaments will have the same structure of starting chips as last year which provided triple the buy in amount in starting chips. The $25k 6-Handed No-Limit event will be a new event added. The Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino has advocated its entire convention center to the WSOP this year.
